About this property
Vintage Waterfront Cabin on Lake Nahwatzel! Private dock and gorgeous views!
This 2 bedroom one bath cabin is located on the beautiful Lake Nahwatzel in Mason County. Lake Nahwatzel is one of the warmest lakes in western Washington due to the fact that it is partially fed by hot springs, and it is also opened to fishing year-round. This lake is considered to be one of the best bass-fishing lakes in western Washington during the summer months and is also stocked twice a year with rainbow trout. You can ski, jet ski, swim, boat and fish on this lake! This cabin is the perfect place to get away from the cares of the world, relax on the expansive deck, or sit on the private dock with your feet in the warm water. The vintage feel and decor of "Grampy's Cabin" is welcoming, and takes you back to the days of old, less worry and more fishing! Public boat launch is just past the cabin on the right - convenient for your water toys. There is one bedroom on the main level, and the loft above has 2 additional beds. The cabin is stocked with the necessities you will need, and a comfortable place to settle in. Fresh water is pumped into the home from the bottom of the lake for use in the sinks and bathroom, however it is not certified for drinking. Guests are asked to please bring their own drinking water. The home has wifi and a smart TV for streaming your favorite shows on your own account - and is ready for your visit! Come and experience The Cabin on Lake Nahwatzel!

Great location, fantastic and easy access to water. The space worked well for us. The porch/dock is a little more outdated than we thought from the pictures.

Our stay was fantastic! We had some rain, but it didn’t stop the fun! Cabin is adorable. I love Lake Nahwatzel as we had a cabin there in the 60-70s. I will be back! Kim, the host was always available! Thank you!!!!!

The location on the lake and the view from the cabin are both exceptional. Communication was excellent all through the process including registering, directions, and what to use and how to use the things at the property. Everything was clean and in working order. Had a wonderful time and would return.
Enjoyed the peacefulness of the lake cabin. Cozy interior and awsome multi level deck for relaxing. Had a great time swimming and fishing, we had a blast

We had a great time at at lake Nahwatzel and the area. We had four beautiful days hiking in the mountains and enjoying the clear clean lake water. The camp was cozy, a throw back in time to my youth.

Beautiful location and funky but fun and comfortable old cabin. Dock access to the lake is awesome for swimming and boating if you bring your own gear. We brought two inflatable stand up paddle boards and it worked out great.Kitchen is well enough equipped, standard stuff for a rental, nothing fancy but functional. Electric grill on the deck worked better than I thought it might at first glance.Kim was super helpful and very responsive to any and all questions before and during our stay.No potable water is a bit of a hassle but plan ahead and bring plenty for cooking and drinking and tooth brushing etc.Will definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at the cabin for our anniversary. We love Lake N! We brought the kids with us this year. The kids caught some trout and we all went out on our paddle boards. Such a great weekend!
Awesome view from several different levels of the porch.
Home was clean and spacious. Deck was awesome with chairs and a small table for relaxing and eating. Dock was comfortable and plenty of room for a couple of chairs to sit and relax it.
The renting process was really well handled and unusually easy. The property manager was extremely gracious and accommodating. Professional in all aspects.

Thank you for your rating and kind words! We hope you will consider us again.

The cabin was exactly as described; cozy, relaxing, clean and perfect for a family get-a-way. The neighbors on each side of the home were very kind and welcoming even though we were just tourists for a week. The lake was great for swimming, paddle boarding, jet skiing and fishing. The communication from the property manager was top notch and overall we couldn't have been happier with the entire experience.
We would definitely recommend Grampy's Cabin!

We brought our two grandsons for 4 nights. They had fun swimming and jumping off the dock. We caught enough fish to keep it interesting. The boys each had a full size bed upstairs and we had a room downstairs. We brought our little boat and were able to tie it to the dock for easy access. A great trip for all!!

Love to hear these stories! Thank you so much for the great review - so glad to hear that you were able to enjoy the fishing as well.
We hope you will consider us again!

We really enjoyed our stay. Beds were very comfortable. Had everything we needed. There were a few drawbacks- wooden stairs down to the lake are a bit slippery when wet, so be careful. Railing to hold onto at the final descent to the dock would be helpful. Also, parking for a boat trailer is not ideal, although it is doable.

Hi Jay,
Thank you for taking the time to post a review! Glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay, and we hope you will be back to visit again soon! =)
Have a great day!

We've been staying at this cabin once a year for a number of years now and have gotten to feel at home there. The additional parking spaces are a much appreciated addition.
The view and location can't be beat. Great place to watch the stars at night after a day playing in the water.
The property manager is local, and responds promptly to any requests. There is a fun little bar/restaurant just down the road within easy walking distance if you dont feel like cooking.
If youre looking for a low key, reasonably priced lakefront stay you cant go wrong.
